Following Rex’s recent scrape with danger see Accident to Rex (thank you to all for the fast intervention), can we ask that you check your gardens to make them hedgehog safe? This following information has been copied from Hedgehog Street. Read more…


This looks like two hedgehogs at the feeding box last night, which is a bit of a relief after yesterday’s drama!


My neighbour heard distress calls and found Rex entangled in wire in her garden at 0730 this morning.  She cut him free and put him in my garden and called me.  I have put him in his original hog home Read more…


Lots of activity around the feeding box, both hedgehogs showing up at various times together and separately, starting at 2215 and finally at 0357.


Various visits again last night and still together.


Recorded 5 visits to the feeding box last night, the first at 2224 hours and the last at 0335 hours.


The hogs returned numerous times during the night. Lovely to see they are both still around.


Green Woodpecker taking advantage! Another 3 visits from the hogs, besides the ones posted here.  Plus a visit to the footprint tunnel.


Came to the feeding box 4 times during the night. Still together.


We are still getting two hedgehogs every night one is big and the other smaller and moves like a true racer, one has been in the House but It did not stay overnight. we are quite expensive up this end.
